In the first two years of the program, students will be introduced to key concepts and provide foundational courses.

  • Organizational Behaviour: Develop a greater understanding of leadership, groups and behaviour in organizations.
  • Research Skills and Analysis: Expand your knowledge of research methods in psychology and refine your investigative and analytical abilities.
